Abstract

As a key strategic platform for China's reform and opening-up in the new era, Hainan Free Trade Port is experiencing a growing demand for high-level applied and multidisciplinary talent against the backdrop of rapid industrial transformation and upgrading. This paper constructs an indicator system comprising educational and industrial subsystems, conducting a systematic analysis of the synergistic efficiency between vocational undergraduate programme structures and industrial demands. It reveals that Hainan's vocational education maintains a high degree of alignment with industrial demands within traditional sectors of strength. However, in emerging fields such as cross-border e-commerce, fintech, and big data, challenges persist including lagging programme development, insufficient talent supply, and low local industrial absorption rates. From a synergistic perspective, the study proposes countermeasures to optimise programme structures, deepen industry-education integration, and enhance educational quality. These recommendations aim to provide theoretical reference and practical pathways for the high-quality development of vocational undergraduate education and regional industrial upgrading.
